Objective To make nurses understand the essential factors of caring nursing service and satisfy the requirement of in-hospital patients. Methods To establish the plan of role-play test(RPT).The roles of patients were played by nurses. They experienced the caring requirement of patients, true feeling, the state of physiology and psychology, etc. Then we discuss and analyze the collected information to consummate measures of caring nufing service. Results The RPT deeped the nurses' understanding about essential factors of caring nursing service. The nursing quality and patients' satisfaction degree were improved compared with those of before(P<0.05).The nursing complaints and service quality were also increased. Conclusion Application of RPT proved to be an effective way to deepen the caring nursing service.

AIM:ToinvestigatetheroleofMALAT1incolorectalcancermetastasis.METHODS:ThemRNA expression levels of MALAT1 and Rac1b in the tumor and adjacent normal tissues were examined by real-time PCR. MALAT1 was knocked down by siRNA in colorectal cancer cell lines .The expression of Rac1b and the epithelial-mesen-chymal transition markers was examined by Western blot .Cell proliferation was determined by EdU analysis .The effects of MALAT1 on the cell migration and invasion were examined by Transwell assay .RESULTS: The expression of MALAT1 was down-regulated in colorectal cancer .Down-regulation of MALAT1 induced Rac1b overexpression, which in turn in-creased the expression levels of E-cadherin and β-catenin.Furthermore, down-regulation of MALAT1 promoted the cell proliferation, invasion and migration.CONCLUSION:MALAT1 is associated with metastasis of colorectal cancer through regulating the expression of Rac1b and the downstream factors.

BACKGROUND:Herba epimedi, a traditional Chinese medicine, has a long time in dealing with various orthopedic disorders. Icarinwithmany biological activites is one of the most important compositions of Herba epimedi. OBJECTIVE:Toinvestigate the effects of icarin on osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cels and the underlying mechanisms. METHODS:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels were treated using icarin with or without osteogenic mediumin vitro. Osteogenic differentiation markers, including runt-related transcription factor 2, osteocalcin and osterix, were detected by real time-qPCR. Alizarin red staining was used to measure calcium nodes generated by osteoblasts induced frombonemarrow mesenchymal stem cels. The proximal tibia bone structure of rats fed with icarin (2 mgperday) for 5 weeks was detected and analyzed by MicroCT. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Icarin was able to promote the expression of genes related to osteogenic differentiation in the absence or presence of osteogenic induction. Icarin could obviously increase the quantity of calcium nodes whenmesenchymal stem celswere cultured in the osteogenic medium. The animal experiment showed that icarin improved formation of trabecular bone.

Objective To understand the research hotspots and research trends about convolutional neural networks in the field of oncology imaging diagnosis by analyzing the characteristics of published literature at home and abroad over the past decade. Methods The SCI-E database was used as the data source to retrieve literature about convolutional neural networks in the field of oncology imaging diagnosis published from 2012 to 2022. The distribution characteristics of countries, institutions, journals, co-cited authors, and keywords of the studies were analyzed by CiteSpace software. Results A total of 1088 papers were eventually included, and they were mostly from China, the United States, and India. A total of 39 papers were published by Sun Yat-sen University, the research institution with the highest number of publications. Radiology Nuclear Medicine Medical Imaging was the journal with the highest number of publications. A total of 25 high-frequency keywords and 15 burst keywords were obtained. The formation of 12 author co-citation clusters such as image segmentation and lung nodule, as well as 11 keyword clusters such as automatic segmentation and breast cancer, was observed. Conclusion Current research on convolutional neural networks for oncology imaging diagnosis focuses on oncology segmentation, lung-nodule recognition, assisted diagnosis of breast cancer, and other high-frequency oncology.

Objective To analyze the clinical value of 1.5T MRI DWI and SWI sequence in the diagnosis of cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage.Methods A total of 28 patients with cerebral infarction were selected as control group,and 28 patients with cerebral hemorrhage were selected as observation group.The PHILPS 1.5T magnetic resonance imaging system was applied.The patients were examined by T1WI and T2WI sequence scanning,and DWI and SWI sequence images were obtained.In the two groups,lesions around the center and different characteristics of SWI and DWI were observed and compared,and the measurement of peripheral lesions were measured for calculating the central area of the PV and ADC.Results There was no significant difference between T1WI and T2WI in patients with cerebral hemorrhage and cerebral infarction,but there was significant difference between DWI sequence and DWI sequence.MRI routine examination showed that there were no significant differences in detection rates of T1WI sequence and T2WI sequence between two groups,but the detection rate of DWI sequence in the observation group was significantly lower than the control group,while detection rate of DWI sequence was significantly higher than the control group(P<0.05).The central area of ADC in the observation group was significantly better than that in the control group,and the PV value of the hematoma area was significantly lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Collections of DWI and SWI images of cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage by magnetic resonance prove that there are significant differences between characteristics of two images.
